    1 Tubular Busbar

    A tubular busbar is a hollow aluminium conductor profile that offers improved stiffness-to-weight and heat dissipation compared to solid bars. Tubular conductors are used where mechanical layout or thermal requirements favor a hollow cross-section. Aluminium offers strong electrical conductivity at roughly half the weight of copper, with built-in corrosion resistance and full recyclability. Our seamless aluminum bus tubes feature smooth surfaces, uniform cross-sections, and no visible defects. We offer Copper and Aluminium Tubular Busbars in a range of sizes to suit 33kV, 66kV and 132kV substations. This document supersedes the following documents, all copies of which should be destroyed.
